I've had a number of patients ask me about my musical background given a diploma in cello performance at the Eastman School of Music. As such, I've added this page that describes this particular aspect of my background. My non-musical CV is here.
I would also like to take this time to strongly urge everyone who provides charitable contributions to the Fauquier Hospital Foundation to please earmark their donations to the speech pathology division of the Fauquier Hospital PM&R Department. Speech pathology provides voice rehabilitation for individuals (singers and non-singers alike) who have severely damaged their voices. The division is in need of financial support, especially needed equipment. Thank you.
